Tasting Notes
Aroma
The bouquet is characterised
by floral notes, apple and almond.
Appearance
The Fiumeseccu Blanc is pale straw in colour.
Palate
The palate is one of vibrancy and crisp acidity on a
quite saline, minerally base. Totally moreish!
Vinification
The grapes are pressed and settled at cold temperatures. Fermentation
lasts for between 15 and 25 days in stainless steel tanks. The wine is aged on its lees
and racked twice before being bottled in the Alzipratu cellars between 5 to 8 months
following the harvest.
Food Matching
Serve lightly chilled with an octopus salad, alternatively with fresh prawns or
Corsican Omelette (with fresh herbs and goat’s milk cheese).
Region Notes
The 40 hectare vineyard is composed of several south-facing parcels and is split into
two different parts. The first is located north of the convent, near to Zilia, and the
second is situated 10 km west of the village of Calenzana, in the upper Figarella valley.
The Alzipratu vineyards are planted primarily to traditional Corsican varieties, and lie
at the foothills of Monte Grossu (the peak of which is 1950 m.a.s.l.); and just a few
minutes from the coast. As a result, the vines benefit from sharply contrasting climatic
influences due to their proximity to both the sea and the mountains.
